A Place for Mom’s detailed proprietary data indicates that 69% of assisted living facilities in the San Diego area offer pet-friendly accommodations. If you have a furry, four-legged family member joining you in your move to assisted living, there should be no shortage of options among the assisted living communities in our partner network.
Many San Diego facilities restrict pet types to cats and dogs and often reduce the size of animals they’ll accommodate to around 30 pounds or less. Specific facilities may have additional requirements, and you may need to consider how pet rent could increase your overall monthly assisted living costs. Learn more about the specific communities by browsing this curated list of best assisted living communities in San Diego for pet-friendliness.
